How to do it

  1. Hip Hinge Exercise DescriptionThe hip hinge is a fundamental movement pattern that involves bending at the hips while keeping the spine neutral.
  2. It is commonly used in exercises like deadlifts, kettlebell swings, and good mornings.
  3. To perform a hip hinge: Starting Position: Stand with your feet hip-width apart and a slight bend in your knees.
  4. Hinge at the Hips: Push your hips back while maintaining a straight back.
  5. Your torso should lean forward, and your chest should stay up.
  6. Lowering Phase: Continue to hinge until your torso is nearly parallel to the ground, or until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings.
  7. Return to Standing: Drive through your heels and thrust your hips forward to return to the starting position.
